suggestions! What do we want to happen? I'm just here to make you people
happy. I want to thank everyone for reviewing!
Greek Witch: About your review. Lily didn't tell James about her dream. She was thinking what she would say if she actually were to tell James about the dream. So James has no idea what she was dreaming about. For now.
Lizzard: You reviewed!!! Yes, James and Lily are getting closer. I'm trying to make it gradual and not like she wakes up one morning and she's madly in love with him. And I do love insulting Malfoy and Snape!
The all Mighty and Powerful*M: Your back! I hope I've updated soon enough for you. I've been really busy and I really should be doing homework but I like writing for ya'll too much. And I'm so jealous you had your march break last week. Not fair! I don't have spring break till April! APRIL!!! It's sooooo far away!!!

Faded-DreamsX2: WOW! I loved your review! I've updated as soon as I could. I had an unbelievably busy week!
HPPhoenix07: I think you were trying to say Lily is thick in your review. Yes, she is. That is probably where Harry got his thickness. And don't use reviews to tell me what movies you've seen lately. It's called an EMAIL!!!
*Sorry this chapter is short but what can you do? *
~Hogsmeade~
"Ok give me two minutes and then we'll go." James said as soon as Remus was out of the common room and then ran up to the boy's dorm room.
"Hey, where's he going?" Cat asked loudly.
"Oh god this can't be good." Lily muttered and put head in her hands.
"Calm down ladies." Sirius smiled. "You know we would never do anything to hurt you."
"First of all I don't believe anything that comes out of you mouth when you're smiling like that." Cat said pointing at the mischievous smile on Sirius' face. "Second of all we don't worry about you hurting us but getting us in trouble is a totally different story." And Lily let out an especially loud groan.
"When was the last time James or myself got into trouble?" Sirius said trying to defend himself. "Wait no don't answer that." He added quickly when he saw Cat open her mouth to speak. She shut her mouth and smiled triumphantly. Lily just let out another groan.
"Come on Lils it's not going to be that bad." James said plopping down next Lily on the couch with a silver material and a piece of parchment.
"What's that?" Lily lifted her head and pointed at the silvery material.
"Why, my Tiger Lily it's a invisibility cloak." James smiled.
"What? How? Those are supposed to be very rare." Lily said astonished. So that's how they do it.
"Yeah well my dad used this for the ministry and then they got him a new one and he gave this to me." James' smile widened at the astonished look on Lily's face.
"Come on. Let's go already!" Sirius whined like a two year old.
"Ok everyone under the cloak." James said standing up and looking around the common room to make sure no one was watching.
"We can not possibly all fit under that." Cat said not even standing up. Lily nodded in agreement.
"Please. Sirius, Peter, and I practically live under this thing." James said as if it was no big deal walking around the school invisible with two other people.
"Yes, but we have four people not three." Lily said standing up.
"So, You can Cat are way shorter that both of us." Sirius explained.
"Fine whatever." Cat said getting under the cloak and Sirius followed with a scary smile on his face in Lily's opinion.
"Cat I can not believe you are actually going." Lily said shocked.
"It's not like we have anything better to do today. And Sirius if you don't move you hand this instant you won't have it soon." Cat said from under the cloak.
"Come on Lils." James said with his famous puppy dog, face. "I promise that you won't get in trouble."
"Fine and don't give me those puppy dog eyes." Lily said going under the cloak. She could suddenly see Cat and Sirius. They were standing extremely close and while Sirius looked like he was enjoying it Cat looked extremely uncomfortable. Lily just smiled and leaned into Cat and whispered in her hear. "Oh you know you like it." And smiled mischievously.
Then James appeared under the cloak and unconsciously up his hand on the small of Lily's back and she stiffened. It was Cat's turn to smile mischievously.
"Ok, Lily and I will stand in the front and Sirius stand behind Lily and Cat stand behind me." James positioned everyone under the cloak. Sirius' own mischievous smile was back when he realized how close he was to the back of Lily. He reached his hand out to touch her before James caught his hand and hissed in his hear. "You touch Lily and you die."
Sirius just shook his head at James as the four started making there way carefully toward the portrait hole. 'He's a goner.' Sirius thought.
"Ok climb in." James said when they stopped in front of the statue and tapped it with his wand and muttered a spell Lily couldn't hear.
"Yes, and how do you propose we do that?" Cat said looking the statue up and down and in the hole she was supposed to go through.
"Women are such pain in the butt." Sirius muttered and picked cat up with one arm under her knees and the other on her back.
"Put me down" Cat whispered harshly because they were still under the invisibility cloak.
"Ok" Sirius simply whispered and dropped her feet first through the hole.
"Sirius!" Cat yelped. And they all heard a thud as she hit the ground. They also heard the string of curses she was yelling back up at Sirius.
"I think I should go next." Lily said putting a hand on Sirius' shoulder to stop him from hopping down too. "I need to calm her down so she doesn't commit murder." And with that Lily hopped through that hole and landed neatly on her feet.
"Cat, calm down." She said looking at her friend. "You wanted to come on this little excursion."
"Hrumph" was all Cat said in reply. Moments later James landed neatly on his feet followed immediately by Sirius who was stashing the cloak behind a rock.
"Aren't we going to need that in Hogsmeade?" Lily asked with an eyebrow raised.
"Are you kidding?" Sirius replied and walked over to stand next to James. The second he got within arms distance of Cat he was smacked on the head. "OW!"
"You deserve it." Cat said sharply.
"What Sirius was trying to say was that it's Saturday and Hogsmeade is going to be very busy so no one will even notice us." James said as he started walking down the long tunnel.
About half an hour of walking and several arguments between Cat and Sirius, they all reached a latter.
"We're here." Sirius smiled.
"I'll go up first then the girls can go and then you can come up last." James said climbing up the latter. He wanted to make sure the coast was clear and it was so he opened the trap door and climbed up.
"Ok, it's clear." He called down. He saw Lily start to climb the latter. He held his hand out to help her through the door to help her up and to his surprise and hers she accepted it. While both Lily and James were blushing and avoiding each other's eyes Cat and Sirius climbed up out of the trap door.
"Ok first we're going to Honeydukes!" Cat exclaimed.
"Kitty Cat we're in Honeydukes." Sirius said as if it was the most obvious things, which earned him another smack.
"The stairs are over there." James said walking toward them. He was also mentally thanking Cat and Sirius for ending the awkward moment between him and Lily. All three followed James up the stair and into the shop, Cat and Sirius arguing the whole time. Something about him calling her 'Kitty Cat' and him arguing that well, Lily didn't know, she had learned to block them out years ago.
"Here we are!" James said. Cat and Sirius stopped fighting as Cat dragged Lily off toward the chocolate section.
***
"You've got too admit they out did themselves." Cat said as she and Lily walked toward the Three Broomsticks with bags from Honeydukes, Zonko's, and Lily's favorite bookstore. They had left the boys at the quidditch store. "No body has noticed us."
"Yeah, but don't you just feel a little guilty?" Lily asked. And Cat shook her head.
"Lily, this is our seventh year. The last year before we have to deal with real life and everything that Hogwarts protects us from. I think we should have a little fun." Cat explained.
"Yeah, I guess. It's just the whole Head Girl thing I guess." Lily said as she opened the door to The Three Broomsticks. Cat walked toward the only open booth next to the front window. The girls sat across from each other and stuffed all their bags under the table next to they're feet.
Madame Rosemerta walked up to take their order.
"Lily? Cat?" She asked surprised. "Is it a Hogsmeade weekend?"
"No Madame Rosemerta. Lily and I are just taking a little break from Hogwarts. That's all." Cat answered, Lily kept her head down and blushed, and Madame Rosemerta just smiled knowingly.
"Well, what can I get you two to drink?" She asked.
"Two butterbeers please." Lily said lifting her head.
"Make that four." Sirius said as he and James sauntered into the Three Broomsticks. Madame Rosemerta raised her eyebrows as Sirius plopped down next to Cat and James next to Lily.
"I should have known you two were involved." She shook her head in their direction and walked off.
"Why did you leave?" James asked. "We couldn't find you. Then we saw you through the window and knew-" James started.
"- What he means to say is that after he paid for his brand new Broom Stick Servicing Kit, he couldn't find he dear Tiger Lily anywhere." Sirius smiled. Lily blushed, James kicked Sirius under the table, and Cat smacked him again. "OW! Woman, if you keep smacking my head I won't have any brain cells left."
"You don't deserve them!" Cat exclaimed as Madame Rosemerta brought the drinks and left shaking her head again. 'They are never going to change.' She thought.
After a few more minutes of fighting and then all four actually got into a civil discussion.
"What are you doing to do after Hogwarts, James?" Lily asked after she explained that she wanted to work in the Experimental Charms department of the Ministry.
"I'm going to be an Auror." He simply said. "Like my dad."
"That can be very dangerous but I know where you're coming from." Lily nodded her head. "This whole Voldemort thing has gotten worse and worse and it's just wrong."
"Yeah, it has." James agreed.
Just then everyone looked up when they heard a scream come from out side. They all looked outside and saw Death Eaters appariting everywhere. Then more screams and Green flashes of light flying everywhere.
"Lily get under the table!" James shouted as he pushed her under the table. James saw a group of death eaters enter The Three Broomsticks.
